Praying from 1 Corinthians 7:38. Themes: Marriage, Virginity, Celibacy.

Dear Lord, help me to trust in your plan for my life and the lives of those around me. May I have the wisdom to discern when it is right to give my own virgin in marriage and when it is better to wait. Guide me in making decisions that honor you and bring glory to your name. Thank you for your love and grace. Amen.

Verse: So then both he who gives his own virgin in marriage does well, and he who doesn’t give her in marriage does better.
1 Corinthians 7:38

This is a Command. The verse commands the reader to consider not giving their virgin in marriage, as it is considered better than giving them in marriage.
